Conjecture on the mass curve of cubic-quintic ground states

Let PωP_\omega denote the ground state soliton for the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation on R3\mathbb{R}^3, and let M(Pω)M(P_\omega) be its mass. Mass-curve conjecture. There is an ω(0,316)\omega_*\in(0,\tfrac3{16}) such that the map ωM(Pω)\omega\mapsto M(P_\omega) is strictly decreasing for ω<ω\omega<\omega_* and strictly increasing for ω>ω\omega>\omega_*. This would describe the numerically observed single turning point of the ground-state mass/energy curve; the source presents it as an open question.
